In this Episode Lalitha

Describes how she is impacted by saying affirmations titled “Giving and Receiving” from Louis Hay's book 

“Meditations to Heal your life”

Whenever I give something to someone or do a service, I am conscious of being compassionate, reasonable, and courteous.

Whenever I receive a service, even if I am unable to reciprocate, I remind myself of the above affirmation and say to myself that at some point in time, I will be able to help. I consciously receive gifts and compliments with gratitude ( by saying thank you and meaning it) and with a smile. Conscious acts like these keep me healthy and peaceful.
